It’s nearly Winter Break, and that means you’ll soon have time to relax with a book. Choose one that’s….RED! Just for fun, we’ve assembled a quirky assortment of these brightly colored titles.

Red Fiction:Me Before You,by Jojo Moyes is a quirky, non-traditional novel about love. The Word Exchange, by Alena Graedon, offers an eerie, dystopian take on a world where words are disappearing in favor of memes.

Red History & Politics:The Sleepwalkers: How Europe Went to War in 1914, by Christopher Clark. If you’re intrigued by the causes of the 1st World War, this is a richly detailed read. Dear Leader: My Escape from North Korea, by Jang Jin-Sung, tells the author’s story of his time as the poet to Kim Jong-Il, propping up the leader’s ego, and forming a member of his inner circle. A series of events, from a forbidden volume of poetry to his increasing disgust with the gap between the haves and have nots caused him to flee for his life. It’s a jarring story, and one that may appeal to readers of Catlin Gabel speaker Adam Johnson’s The Orphan Master’s Son.
